four years ago, george bush led bill clinton by ten percentage points, 15 in some polls, with this constituency. this year clinton is crushing dole in all the surveys of this group. it's a tremendous number of voters, white women living in the suburbs. they respond to a certain set of issues, gun control, education, medicare, because many of them are taking care of their elderly parents and they're very concerned about these so-called social issues. dole did not do enough to address these issues directly. clinton, by contrast, mentioned not once, but twice the issue of women being able to stay in the hospital longer when they have a baby, which is a big issue with the so-called soccer moms. so dole didn't do what he had to do with them tonight. >>> coming up, we'll go to the ballot in new hampshire. the latest numbers on who is winning and who is losing, coming up. >>> but first, mitt romney is in central florida today. we'll look where he needs to win in the sunshine state. this is msnbc, the place for politics. with swiffer dusters, a great clean doesn't have to take longer. i'm done.
